At what point will the people say enough is enough?

End the wittholding of taxes from people's paychecks, and it starts the following April 15.

Agreed.

Unfortunately the power to withhold income taxes from a paycheck would likely be very difficult to repeal.

17 But remember, when the people once part with power, they can seldom or never resume it again but by force.

A more likely scenario is a race between taxing authorities for that last drop of blood. As a result of such a high total tax rate, people will quite literally not be able to afford to work. If that happened I could see where the Federal Government would step in and appropriate all tax revenue for 'the good of the nation'. The states will remain but at the pleasure of the Federal Government.

If the runaway spending continues, I think this scenario is not only possible but probable.
